lyman deerstalker stainless

[ol_luke66]

on the lyman web site it says that this rifle has a special 1-48 twist for maxi-balls. does anyone know what is special about it. Will it shoot rb's?

If it has a 1-48 twist it should shoot rd. balls just fine. Unless it has extremely shallow rifling. All the 1-48 barrels i have had shot real good with rd balls.

If you download the instruction manual off their site it says that the DeerStalker Stainless is 1 in 32" twist.

I don't need it, i don't own the gun.

I don't need it, i don't own the gun.

Sorry, I meant that for ol luke. I guess I should have hit the reply button on his post. I didn't know it would make a difference and put your name there. :sorry:

 

[Rebel]

Thats ok, i just wanted you to know. Take care.

I thought the stainless version was a 1:32 twist ?

 

[glazer1972]

Certainly some confusing stuff. The website says 1 in 48" but the instructions say 1 in 32". ::

When I was looking for a left-handed muzzleloader for my son, I came across a website that listed the stainless versions as 1:32.
